The Infiniti version launched in the United States in 2010, the first Patrol sold there since the 60 series. The Nissan Patrol version launched in Australia in early 2013.
The Nissan Patrol is offered in five different levels of trim in the Middle East: XE, SE, LE, NISMO and City Package. In Australia the Ti and Ti-L trim levels are offered, and previously the ST-L.
In 2014, a significant facelift arrived, with revised tail lights, globe housings and built-in LED headlights. New tan interior was added and new sets of wheels. Nissan has also introduced a limited-run Patrol Black Special Edition which will be offered in 200 units. These cars will come several enhancements such as red seats, chrome detailing and a black matte exterior paint scheme.
